Outdoor STEM Education
At Lone Oaks Farm, we help K-12 teachers reinforce lessons in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) through fun and hands-on programs that talented and experienced instructors lead.
Our STEM programs get kids outside, connected to nature, and engaged with each other – in difficult or impossible ways to accomplish in the classroom.

Our STEM Program
Our program covers the fields of biology, ecology, chemistry, math, geometry, robotics, engineering, physics, and so much more.
Through engaging, hands-on activities, each child’s imagination, creativity, and passion for learning will grow and be nurtured.
Created by the University of Tennessee in partnership with area public and private schools, our STEM programs meet strong academic goals.

Lone Oaks Farm is a world-class destination for K-12 teachers and students interested in STEM. Owned and operated by the University of Tennessee, Lone Oaks Farm offers a variety of programs designed to teach STEM in ways that are fun, challenging, and experiential.
Located near Memphis and Jackson, in Middleton, TN, and encompassing 1,200 acres with a diverse mixture of pasture, woodlands, trails and sixteen lakes, Lone Oaks Farm epitomizes Tennessee’s natural beauty.
This destination isn’t only a showplace, but a working farm – a place where hay, livestock, chickens, eggs, timber, wildlife, and fruit and vegetable crops are produced in abundance. We use all those things and more to teach kids about STEM in new and exciting ways.
